Newly declassified FBI interview records have revived serious allegations that Senator Adam Schiff approved leaks of classified information during the Trump–Russia investigation.
Documents obtained by Just The News cite a whistleblower—a Democratic intelligence officer who worked for the House Intelligence Committee—as telling the FBI multiple times between 2017 and 2023 that Schiff authorized the leaks to politically damage then-President Donald Trump.
At the time, Schiff was the ranking Democrat on the committee and later became its chairman. The whistleblower claimed Rep. Eric Swalwell likely served as the direct source of the leaks, which supported the “Russiagate” narrative. One FBI summary quoted Schiff as telling staffers in a meeting that classified material derogatory to Trump would be leaked and used to indict him.
